Spiced Cucumber Slices

Spiced Cucumber Slices 

I used delicious seedless organic English Cucumbers from Trader Joe's.  They have
a great size and texture for this snack and their skin is not as bitter.  
If using regular cucumbers, you may want to trim the skin off.  

*Wash & slice cucumbers (2 small or 1 large) and place in a container that has a lid
*Add juice of 1 lemon (fresh or bottled)
*Add 1 tsp. sea salt
*Add 1/2 tsp. pepper
*Add 1/2 tsp. chili powder (or more to taste!)
*For those who enjoy extra spice: Add 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes
*Put lid on and shake ingredients together to coat
*Place in fridge overnight to marinate and Enjoy!

This was a quick veggie snack to grab during the day or throw some nitrate free 
deli meat with when we were doing the Fast Metabolism Diet.
Now it is an anytime snack!
Do you like spicy things?  What are your favorite sauces?
